OpenSource Alternatives to Adobe InDesign? (also workflows in Inkscape or GIMP)
A person learned their entire apprenticeship on proprietary Adobe Software.
Mainly InDesign for Layouts, flyers, posters etc.
I would assume that this can be done with Inkscape just fine but they are fully in the “one software for one task” mindset (that Adobe heavily drives).
Anyone have an open source or at least free or one-time-payment alternative for this?
#Scribus didn’t look that well maintained and pretty dated.
Maybe #Affinity Publisher?

@Rhababerbarbar @learnart @artistlounge @artdesign @design @linux@lemmy.world @linux@lemmy.ml I haven’t used Adobe InDesign in a while, but from memory, I haven’t found an alternative that fully suits my needs. Krita is the only alternative to Adobe Photosop that I consider reliable, and it’s very focused on digital painting, so Photoshop is still better suited for broader use. Blender is the best alternative to Autodesk Maya, and Inkscape could replace Adobe Illustrator, but I have little experience with it. I don’t know of any other reliable alternatives at this time.
